DURANGO, Colorado — The Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC) released its All-RMAC volleyball teams on Tuesday, with a pair of Fort Lewis College players receiving Honorable Mention honors voted on by the RMAC coaches.

Senior middle blocker Bailey Longacre and freshman setter Payton Harmann were each selected Honorable Mention for the Skyhawks. The major award winners and the First and Second All-RMAC teams were nominated and voted on by the conference's 16 volleyball head coaches. Coaches were not allowed to vote for their own student-athletes.

"I am very proud of Bailey and Payton," said Fort Lewis head coach, Tricia Melfy. "Bailey has worked so hard throughout her time here and deserves all this recognition. She is a tremendous player and young lady. Payton has also worked so hard every day and deserves this recognition. We are excited about what she will continue to bring to FLC volleyball."

Longacre produced a monster senior season for the Skyhawks, leading the team in kills with a single-season career high of 253, as well as in total blocks (68). The native of Highland Village, Texas also produced a career-high .271 attack percentage in 2019 and finished the season with 12 matches where she had 10 or more kills.

For her career, Longacre will graduate with 856 career kills; the 12^th most all-time at Fort Lewis College, according to available records, while her 252 career total blocks rank seventh all-time in program history.

As for Harmann, the setter out of Peoria, Arizona had a breakout freshman season as the Skyhawks' starter. She finished the season with 699 assists, 81 kills and 26 aces. Harmann also showed her versatility on the defensive side of the net with 31 total blocks and 231 digs, including 13 matches with 10 or more digs.

She will be at the heart of a young core — FLC is set to return five starters — the Skyhawks will look to build off of heading into the 2020 season.
